Has anybody had success installing Windows 8 Build 7955 on VMWare Workstation version 7.1.4. The install runs through fine, but after the final reboot I get the message "Your computer needs to restart. It encountered a problem and will restart automatically. Error 0x0000005c".

I've tried booting in safe mode to no avail, however as safe mode lists the drivers being loaded into memory it seems to crash on disk.sys. I've had a search round and can't seem to find a fix. I've changed the settings on the disk type in vmware but can't seem to get it running.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

This is a known issue, so far I haven't read of any success's with VMWare, you need to install it on virtualbox.
